google-takeout-viewer 0.1.3

A tool to visualize Google Takeout data

google-takeout-viewer

A CLI-managed local web app for viewing your Google Takeout data in the browser.

What is google takeout?

You can export your data from google services and products as a takeout zip file. This will contain youtube histories, notes, etc...

Installation

pip install google-takeout-viewer

Quick Start

1. Download your data from Google Takeout

2. Parse the data:

takeout-viewer parse /path/to/takeout.zip

You can parse many takeouts as you want. Each parse command will add the parsed info into an SQLite command. For the parsing logic, it utilizes the takeout parser package: https://github.com/purarue/google_takeout_parser.

3. View in browser:

takeout-viewer view

Opens http://127.0.0.1:8000 with your data:

Commands

• takeout-viewer parse <path> - Parse a Google Takeout ZIP or folder
• takeout-viewer view - Start server and open browser
• takeout-viewer clear - Clear the local database containing the parsed info

Supported Data

• YouTube watch history
• YouTube search history
• YouTube comments
• Google Keep notes

In the works / Future goals

I see two main ways to expand this project.

1. Support more data formats like location history, music history, emails, etc ...
2. Add visualizations for existing formats. We could have for example graphs or charts.

Contributions

Any contribution and feedback is welcome! I am hoping to create a comprehensive way to easily browse and view takeout files.
